US To Deploy 3,000 Troops To Middle East As Trump Claims War Is Won
The United States is preparing to deploy thousands of troops from the 82nd Airborne Division to the Middle East.
According to the Wall Street Journal on Tuesday, a brigade of around 3,000 troops from the 82nd Airborne Division is expected to deploy soon, with orders anticipated in the coming hours.
The deployment is expected to include ground forces as well as a command element responsible for operational planning and logistics.
It follows earlier reports that 5,000 US marines and sailors, alongside an amphibious assault ship, had already been dispatched to the area.
Speaking from the White House, Trump said “this war has been won” when asked about developments in Iran, while also suggesting that internal changes in the country amounted to a shift in leadership.
“We really have regime change… because the leaders are all very different from the ones we started with,” he retorted.
“They have agreed that they will never acquire nuclear weapons…we are in negotiations right now”.
However, Iran’s foreign minister Abbas Araghchi denied that any negotiations had taken place, contradicting Trump’s account.
Trump also referred to what he described as a “very big gift” from Iran regarding the Strait of Hormuz, though he declined to provide details.
“It was a very significant prize,” he remarked.
